2004 ­ Progressive Museum of Invisible Art

The Progressive Museum of Invisible Art (MPDAI) is located in
the Ligurian Val Bormida (Italy) and is mainly made up of the living
presence of its inhabitants performing the never-ending changing,
making continuously, consciously or not, artistic actions which, due
to their nature, are not supported with documentary evidence and
remain invisible under a communicative, knowledge and keeping profile.

The MPDAI epicentre is “Rocchetta dei Murales” (Savona) located
between Cairo Montenotte and Dego. Rocchetta dei Murales keeps in its
own old built-up area, recent mural paintings (murales from 1990 to
1992) and also has a regional sheltered naturalistic area (oasi
naturalistica) composing an open area museum (ecomuseo) of great
value.

The location of the Progressive Museum of Invisible Art in this
area was decided by Bruno Chiarlone, local mail artist working in Val
Bormida, who performs also projects of recording, cataloguing, and
comparing study of local artistic actions, poetic actions on the area,
artistic and poetic exchanges among operators of whole the world by
means of the mail art.
